Auto-check delay in POP3 checker by _Lion on 10-02-2004 at 11:31 PM

I turned on the POP3 checker in Plus! But it doesn't periodically check for new email though. Or does the "auto-check delay" option doesn't mean it checks for email every x minutes?

To make Plus! check for new mail, I have to click the right-mouse-button. It is easier to just start my mail-program and check for new email. In my opinion a mail-checker that does only check email when you have to tell it, isn't a real checker...

Hope somebody can shed some light on this issue..

I never heared of someone experiencing that though...

Are you 100% sure you've filled out all the required fields?
That the logina and password is correct?
That you have a portnumber (110) filled in?
That you're server is filled in correctly?
That the use POP3-feature is enabled?

Cause to me it sounds like Plus! does check every X minutes, but that there is some setting filled in, and thus Plus! can't find any mailserver....

I does check, but only when I right-click on the "No New Messages" line in MSN. Then it checks for email and the line changes to something like "1 new e-mail message".

I check 3 POP3 accounts and Plus! al checks for then without problems, only the every x minutes bit is not working.

I will add an attachment with a screengrab of the configuration.

yeah, everything seems ok. No reason for not working... Dunno what else it could be except for some strange bug... sorry for the doubt...
